摘要:
A position-measuring device for detecting the position of two objects movable relative to each other, includes a measuring standard that is joined to one of the two objects, as well as a scanning system for scanning the measuring standard, the scanning system being joined to the other of the two objects. The scanning system permits a simultaneous determination of position along a first lateral shift direction and along a vertical shift direction of the objects. To that end, on the part of the scanning system, two scanning beam paths are formed, in which a group of phase-shifted signals is able to be generated in each case at the output end from interfering partial beams of rays. In addition, via the scanning system, at least a third scanning beam path is formed, by which it is possible to determine position along a second lateral shift direction of the objects. The beam from a light source is able to be supplied to the scanning system via a first light guide and coupling-in optics in common for all three scanning beam paths. The interfering partial beams of rays produced in the three scanning beam paths are able to be coupled via common coupling-out optics, into a second light guide which supplies these beams of rays to a detector system.

An optical position-measuring device is adapted to detect the position of an object in several spatial degrees of freedom. The object is disposed in a manner allowing it to move at least along a first direction of movement and along a second direction of movement. The position-measuring device includes at least one light source and at least one first and second measuring standard which are located on the object, extend along a first extension direction and a second extension direction and include graduation regions disposed periodically along the first and second extension directions. In addition, a scanning plate is provided, into which at least first and second retroreflector elements are integrated, the first retroreflector element extending parallel to the first extension direction and the second retroreflector element extending parallel to the second extension direction, and via which, sub-beams that fall on them from the first and second measuring standard, are reflected back in the direction of the respective measuring standard. From superposed sub-beams, a detector system is able to generate position signals at least with respect to the movement of the object along the first and second direction of movement.

In a system and a method for positioning a processing tool in relation to a workpiece, an object alignment mark and the workpiece are situated on a first object. In addition, a workpiece alignment mark is situated on the workpiece. The processing tool via which the object alignment mark is detectable is situated on a second object, which is disposed so as to be displaceable along at least one movement direction in relation to the first object. Furthermore, an alignment sensor is disposed thereon, with whose aid the object alignment mark and the workpiece alignment mark are detectable. In addition, a scannable measuring standard, which extends along the at least one movement direction, is disposed on the second object. At least two scanning units for scanning the measuring standard are situated on the first object in order to thereby determine the relative position between the first and the second object along the movement direction, the two scanning units having a defined offset.

A sensor assembly for measuring a torsion of a rotor blade of a wind turbine generator system includes a first light source configured to generate light and a first transmitter-side polarizer disposed downstream thereof in a direction of light propagation and configured to generate linearly polarized light as a first transmission light. A second light source is configured to generate unpolarized light as a second transmission light. First and second detector elements are arranged and adapted to receive the first and second transmission light. A first receiver-side polarizer is disposed upstream of the first detector element in the direction of light propagation and a second receiver-side polarizer is disposed upstream of the second detector element in the direction of light propagation. An orientation of a polarization plane of the first receiver-side polarizer and an orientation of a polarization plane of the second receiver-side polarizer are different from one another.

An interferometric distance measurement device includes a multiple wavelength light source, supplying a light beam having at least three different wavelengths. An interferometer unit is provided, which splits the light beam into a measuring light beam and a reference light beam. The measuring and reference light beams reflected back by measuring and reference reflectors are superimposed in an interfering manner to form an interference light beam. The interference light beam is split via a detection unit such that, in each instance, a plurality of phase-shifted, partial interference signals result per wavelength. With the aid of a signal processing unit, an absolute position information item regarding the measuring reflector is determined from the partial interference signals of different wavelengths.

A machine tool includes a stationary machine frame, a tool head, which is able to be positioned relative to the machine frame along three mutually orthogonal translation axes, and a motor-driven tool. The machine tool includes a swivel unit, which can be pivoted about a horizontal swivel axis relative to the machine frame and includes a workpiece positioning device, via which a workpiece can be rotated about an axis of rotation oriented perpendicularly to the swivel axis. The swivel unit is assigned a measuring frame, which is able to be rotated with the swivel unit and is arranged to be thermally and/or mechanically decoupled from the swivel unit and includes components of a first and second position measuring system. Additional components of the first position measuring system are disposed on the tool head, and further components of the second position measuring system are situated on the workpiece positioning device. The spatial position of the tool head in relation to the measuring frame is ascertained via the first position measuring system, and the spatial position of the workpiece positioning device in relation to the measuring frame takes place via the second position measuring system.
